I didn't know where to post this but i opened up a thread for an issue I was having which can be found here : viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12805I was informed that the issues I had were a known issue. issue 1156

Looking into the issue i see there have been some strides in trying to resolve the issue.

The link at the bottom point to two .java files that should resolve the issue i'm having. But, i have no idea where to add these files to or where i need to copy the code into? I'm on windows 7 and i'm using 1.50.0 pms. Any help would be most appreciated.

You cannot install .java files. To use those, you will need to compile PMS with those files included.

The easiest way to do that is to clone my repo (it includes the two java files) and follow the instructions there. Be sure to clone my repo, though! Not the ps3mediaserver repo as the instructions suggest.

Do not take this route this if you are not comfortable with compiling and building your own software. In that case you are better off waiting for some future release with a fix.

thanks for the response much appreciated. i've recently looked into java and for the most part on and off i've dealt with different programming languages. i'm no pro as soon as i learn is about as quickly as i forget also. But, even though i may not be comfortable the worst i can do is affect my pms which i could reinstall anyway if i were to mess up so yea its a risk im willing to take. thanks though i'll try to see what i can do. Also since its been a while i mean i know what a repo is but in the link what is the name or where is your repo located? and i should be able to move on from there if possible.

I think you did nothing wrong.

We discovered a problem in the code that automatically detects the correct network interface and are working on a solution for that.A workaround is to go to the "General configuration" tab and use the "Force networking on interface" menu to force the use of the correct interface.

that did help now the ps3 and LG tv are seeing the media server once more. I couldn't get the FLV's to play so uninstalled and used revo to remove anything pms from the registry. I also deleted all the folders and i just did the whole process once more compiled another pms-setup installed it the lg and ps3 showed up and the flv files worked. But, i still end up with the same issue i've been having where it stops after a minute or two and said loading. So i'm not sure as to what else i can do now maybe in a few more revisions this issue could possibly be resolved.
